Volunteering

Kenyon students participate in many volunteer initiatives, which encourages civic engagement and contributes to the well-being of Knox County. Environmentally-related projects include:

BFEC volunteering - many volunteers are needed at the BFEC to facilitate field trips for local elementary school students. Often, students describe the field trips as one of their favorite volunteer experiences.

Wiggin Street Garden - the Wiggin Street Garden is a student-run initiative. Volunteers can help with planting and harvesting and interacting with Wiggin Street elementary school children.

Kenyon Farm- located on 20245 Zion Rd. in Gambier, this farm is student-run and aims to increase awareness about sustainable agriculture and local foods.
